Nancy Reagan Recovering From Pneumonia

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA — Former President Ronald Reagan's wife Nancy is recovering from a bout with viral pneumonia and has been advised by doctors not to travel, her spokeswoman said Friday.

Mrs. Reagan, 72, would be unable to attend an anti-drug conference next week in Washington, but the illness was not life-threatening, the spokeswoman said.

"She is doing better, but the doctors do not want her to travel," she said.

The former first lady, who championed anti-drug efforts while in the White House with her "Just Say No" campaign, was scheduled to participate in Wednesday's "Substance Abuse and the American Woman" conference in Washington.
